The Front Porch Inn is a coastal artesian dream. The hosts responded quickly and the instructions were very easy to follow. As soon as you enter through the gate you are greeted by the sanctuary of ponds, and flora and fauna. We stayed in the Hideout room; decorated in thoughtful 70's vintage decor, the room was clean and well supplied. The bed and linen were cooling and comfortable. We slept great. The only...only thing is that the shower is small, but they used the available space. Speaking of space, the private tub was WONDERFUL. Plenty of hot water. And the aptomsphere was unbelievably romantic and relaxing. With the amount of vegetation around you may see a cobwebs or two, but in no way is it dirty or un-kept. We very much recommend The Front Porch Inn!

Very close to the California Redwood Coast-Humboldt County Airport, this Holiday Inn Express &…read moreSuites is located in McKinleyville, just north of Eureka in North Coast California. My wife, her mom, and I spent two nights here as we explored the various parks (national and state) in the area, and found it to be good place to stay. I made the reservation for two nights via Chase Travel, total of $536.06. Holiday Inn is part of the IHG rewards program (which having a CSR credit card will automatically give Platinum Elite status, though it didn't really provide anything additional worth mentioning). One good thing though is that one will earn nights and points through the IHG rewards program, even if booked through an on-line third party travel agency (which usually doesn't happen). Just need to make sure that your rewards number is listed in the reservation (mine wasn't). Another big benefit is that you get a $250 annual credit if using your CSR for a 2+ night stay at an IHG hotel. It has shuttle service to the airport, and we noticed airline employees taking advantage of it. Surface parking is free, with plenty of spots. We noticed a section where rental bikes were available, for those who wanted to ride at the Hammond Costal Trail. Our two queen room was fine, and it was an accessible, meaning the bathroom and front area were very large. It was a shower/tub combo unit and the water pressure was very strong, best we had on the trip. Shampoo and soap were Dove products, which my MiL really liked. Beds were comfortable, the large flat screen TV had a variety of basic cable channels, and a large work desk with a comfortable office chair. A microwave, coffee maker, and small fridge completed the set-up. The room had a modern thermostat, connected to a Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner, which worked well. The hotel does have an indoor pool, guest laundry room, and 24-hour fitness center. The lobby has two Costa Coffee espresso machines, with freshly ground coffee beans. The breakfast/lobby area is decently sized with a nice complementary breakfast in the morning (opens at 6:30), and a section of to-go items for those that want to get an earlier start. Free freshly popped corn was available throughout the day, which my wife took advantage. We were able to take advantage of the full breakfast on the 2nd morning, and I liked the premade Green Chile Egg Chorizo & Cheddar breakfast burritos available. There was no make your own waffle machine; instead, a 'Go Ahead Pan-cake my day' machine that made pretty decent pancakes ("in a minute flat"...l love puns :-).

We were driving through Oregon and Northern California, long story short ended up here, and while I…read morewas a little miffed at first that it was $154, I'm honestly really glad we stayed. It's right by the airport, but it was surprisingly peaceful. I went on a quick walk around the area and it was actually really nice. Walking inside, you're immediately welcomed into a very pretty Holiday Inn Express--it's clean, bright, and just feels good to be in. They had free cookies and popcorn, plus a little complimentary coffee and hot chocolate bar, which after a long day of driving was genuinely appreciated. The woman who checked me in was wonderful--super kind, long gray hair, just a really pleasant person. She even gave me a room with a small balcony view, which was such a nice bonus after being on the road all day. The room itself was clean, modern, and I had zero issues with it. They also offer a complimentary breakfast buffet, which matters more than people admit--there are hotels that cost more than this and don't even offer that. Holiday Inn Express isn't luxurious, and that's not an insult. It's not trying to be. It's clean, comfortable, reliable, and consistently better than you expect. You go in with low expectations and leave thinking, okay, I get why people swear by this. For what it is, it really punches above its weight, and I'm genuinely glad we stayed here. Thanks!

Ammenities- Balance-…read moreCleanliness+ Delightfulness+ Environment+ TV had 6 channels and did not work, basic needs met, breakfast was lacking in variety and flavor, but still appreciated. Price for quality of room and amenities off balance, not pricey but still a motel 6 at least has HBO and all of its soaps. Very clean and organized, a few missing refillable bottles, but otherwise great! Delightfulness... Tara made our stay amazing, she handled so much in one night and with grace and cheerful can do attitude, earned you an entire star just herself. The hotel itself is nice enough, the area is near plenty of things to eat and do, near enough to the airport, and just a few minutes from the ocean. Overall Tara is what put this above 3/5 TV and Toiletries were the worst part, beds were very firm, get or bring extra pillows, don't forget your own soap and shampoo etc.

Breakfast was probably the worst we had among our many hotels during our weeklong road trip (also stayed at a Fairfield Inn and Sleep Inn). Coffee was from a weird fountain-like machine, which tasted like powder if anything. Staff always seemed bored or just not proud to be there. Pros: close to highway, quiet rooms, clean rooms Cons: a bit dated, sad breakfast, mediocre staff

It's just up the street from Wildberries (a gourmet grocery store) and so easy to get to from any location in Arcata/Eureka/McKinleyville.

Very disappointing experience -- would not recommend…read more We have stayed at the Hampton Inn & Suites Arcata many times while visiting our daughter at Humboldt, so this experience was especially disappointing. Before my husband arrived, I checked Hilton's own website and saw a Hilton Honors rate of approximately $170 before tax with rooms available. He arrived after midnight due to a travel delay and was charged $240 before tax. When we questioned the discrepancy, the manager, Dalila Morales, was extremely rude and dismissive and refused to make any adjustment, insisting that the $170 rate did not exist. To make matters worse, the bed was lumpy and uncomfortable. After many stays at this hotel, this experience was enough to change our opinion completely. I would not recommend this hotel and will not be staying here again.

It is walking distance to restaurants, coffee, shops, and bars It is walking distance to lovely hikes in the redwoods and walks along the arcata Marsh. There are Airbnb's in the area, which I may try one day, who knows There are other hotels that are really close by car. Either two exits north or about 10 minutes south in Eureka. I chose this because of location It is over 100 years old Although some may say it needs updating, I think it's kept some of the old charm yet the beds are comfortable. The rooms are clean and the service is spectacular. Everybody who works here is extremely kind No, you're not getting a five diamond resort, which I do prefer. I generally stay at higher end Marriott properties, but that is not an option in this town. I see people saying negative things about noise and homeless. As far as that goes, I've been lucky enough to have rooms facing inside versus the street so noise has not been an issue. The walls are not them, but the gaps under the doors and the thin windows are a factor. Yes they are homeless but they're different from what I see in Southern California down here. The homeless are scary in Arcata. The homeless are fun and interesting to talk to and super kind. I do park my car outside on the street and while I usually am afraid that something will happen in my car I'm not afraid here. Yes, they have a breakfast that's included, but really don't waste your time. I tried it one day thought about trying at the second day and then decided to find somewhere else to eat. Take a chance You will either hate it or love it

Or Mon-Friday, how is that possible, aren't you busy on weekends? Then why is it on the menu, maybe make menus' for weekdays and then weekends? So bizarre. So we went to the bar and then just ordered drinks, Maybe that is the trick, they just want you to drink and spend money and then eat later at dinner time if you make it to then.
